Every corner is a threat is it? I would suggest that telegraph writer does not watch us very often.

It’s a threat we’ll concede on the subsequent break

That is a superb write up. Hard to disagree with any of it really.

Hard taskmasters in the coaching team …. the Italian in them?

To be fair, I thought the corners tonight were pretty decent. Couple of half chances and a hit post. Better than usual!

Maybe. I remember Dunky after his England recall saying the others were saying to him "We hate playing against you lot" I also remember Declan Rice after West Ham played us at home saying "That was embarassing" Not everyone loves us!

You reckon? It seems a bit 'brighton+hipster+chatgpt' to me.

I preferred J Wilsons from the guardian. It seems like he's actually watched us for a bit.

Ooh I love that you think it’t a bit hipster! I am 76 and take that as a compliment, thank you.

"James Milner is still playing at the ripe old age of 83, started off in the middle then drifted onto the left wing"

Blimey - that is impressive.

 

[The Fits]

Both guff if you ask me.
Tonight’s story was about three men. A youth product who is already looking outrageously assured (Hinsh), the old timer looking reborn in a left wing role (Milner) and a batshit manager who comes up with all this (RDZ).
That paints a much more considered and relevant picture for the neutrals than these type of articles that mostly seem pre written or AI generated these days.

https://archive.ph/57WnV is a good read too. Enjoy the moment!

 

[Man of Harveys]

Excellent piece and his is a point worth making: we’re really good and you don’t get to be that good by being entirely likeable. Kinda obvious but nicely spelled out, he’s a good writer.

Both are excellent articles I think. It’s so cool that, as we’ve risen to a higher level, the quality of the written coverage and analysis have too. We never got such interesting and witty write ups in the broadsheets like that after we’d beaten Rochdale.

Great article.
Agreed with everything til I read 'Every corner's a threat'

 

[Eric the meek]

I can't remember the specifics, but I've heard it several times now. Variations on the 'nobody likes playing us' or 'nobody likes coming to the Amex'.

Erm, Estupinian’s thunderbastard was direct from a corner!

 

[HalfaSeatOn]

LOL…..By half-time, poor Pierre-Emile Højbjerg had the air of a game septuagenarian struggling to keep up with his tearaway grandkids.

 

[Man of Harveys]

“Only the old-schoolest of old‑school football men still rail against such things; De Zerbi is to them as Richard Arkwright was to the hand-weavers of Derbyshire.”

I mean COME ON. O level history references? Love it.

Ahem, thunderbolt, if you please.
